Rico at ContractWorker had an interesting post about some research on work-at-home types that got me to thinking about how our work habits differ and how different our lives can be when we get to work/rest/play according to our own body clocks, and not according to a restrictive job.
My husband just retired a couple of weeks ago, and I can see that already he has created a more pleasing schedule for his body clock. He had to be at his previous job by 7:30 a.m., and he’s not a morning person at all. Now he sleeps until about 8 a.m., exercises, and we speak a tiny over breakfast, before he heads to his part-time job or works at home (his choice - he gets paid either way!). He often comes home for lunch, and then stays at work until 6 or 7 p.m. This seems to suit him much better.
What about you? If you were retired or working at home, what schedule would you select? I can’t wait to retire and figure out my schedule!
